#OurFutureOurImpact


We strive to educate ourselves and our communities on racial topics and injustices, to build a more inclusive, accepting, and multicultural Canada.

We are a youth-led organization focused on creating change through action


 

Who We Are

We are a student-driven organization that empowers youth to actively work towards a more multicultural Canada. 

 

Our hashtag #OurFutureOurImpact acknowledges the profound ability youth have in shaping a more inclusive society. Acknowledging the importance of listening, learning, and educating ourselves and others, we strive to use our voices to initiate and sustain conversation and action in communities across Canada. 

Through the collaboration of diverse youth and students from 100+ schools engaging ambassador meetings, we hope to fulfill our collective obligation to actively contribute to a more inclusive society.

Our Goal

We strive to amplify youth voice in anti-racism affairs, and we hope that Generation Z can be the catalyst for further awareness, inclusion, and positive change. Since racism is a deep-rooted issue in modern society, it can be difficult to initiate conversation. Hence, our platform allows individuals to share their stories of racism and injustice — as we stand with them. We actively work to advocate that everyone is treated with equal respect, regardless of race.
